Interesting to me is that "1st Team All-Ohio" generally carries some weight for recruiting stars. I know it's not an exact science but it's a fairly talent rich state in which he took high honors amongst his peers.

Matt Brown had these accolades and is a walk-on at Michigan (I'm guessing because 6' 220# linebackers aren't considered good prospects unless they are Devin Bush fast):

Honors and Rankings
• USA-Today All-Ohio Defensive Player of the Year
• Named Ohio’s Division I Defensive Player of the Year by the Associated Press
• Member of Maxpreps 2016 Football All American team
• OHSAA Defensive Player of the Year honors
• Also lettered in lacrosse, where he was two-time All-State (second team, senior; third team, junior) and was Defensive MVP as a junior and Team MVP as a senior
• Two-time All-Greater Cleveland Conference and two-time first team All-Northeast region honoree

Don't forget Hutchinson, just voted defensive scout player of the year I believe. I hope he can slide right into the rotation on d-line. Maybe Aidan and Caden should get a podcast together in a few years during summer conditioning (a la Dak and Dunc).

Good looking athlete on film, but under-sized to get ranked higher than 3-stars. Get him in the strength program for a year and see what he can do. Great bloodlines and has football instincts like his Dad. 1st team All-Ohio means he is a baller at that level. Hope that translates to the D1 college level with more maturity and size. Special teams contributor for sure.

Ohio State scored to put Michigan down late in the 4th quarter. Kolesar took the kickoff all the way back to OSU territory. Then he scored the game winning TD on the next play on a bomb from Demetrius Brown that he adjusted to in mid-air while the Ohio State DBs fell to the ground in futility.

There is this too. Plenty of young men are far from being adult sized when they are 18. I knew people in the service who grew a couple inches in height after joining as well. I know I added a full inch in height between when I joined and my ETS. Never know

Guy is fast, and looks good on film. Obviously well taught. Sounds like he could be a real steal.

I know people mentioned size and stars, but did he focus on Michigan camps instead of going all over? He obviously loves Michigan. That absolutely impacts recruiting rating (Ronnie bell), and might be a factor here as well.

Probably not, but legacies add character to the team and typically out-work the normal scholarship player so they add good leadership examples. After a year in the strength program, can definitely see him contributing on special teams and providing depth like Glasgow.
